Cooperative Distributed GPU Power Capping for Deep Learning Clusters

Poseidon: An Efficient Communication Architecture for Distributed Deep Learning on GPU Clusters

Deep learning models can take weeks to train on a single GPU-equipped machine, necessitating scaling out DL training to a GPU-cluster. However, current distributed DL implementations can scale poorly due to substantial parameter synchronization over the network, because the high throughput of GPUs allows more data batches to be processed per unit time than CPUs, leading to more frequent network...

Distributed training strategies for a computer vision deep learning algorithm on a distributed GPU cluster

Deep learning algorithms base their success on building high learning capacity models with millions of parameters that are tuned in a data-driven fashion. These models are trained by processing millions of examples, so that the development of more accurate algorithms is usually limited by the throughput of the computing devices on which they are trained. In this work, we explore how the trainin...

Distributed Learning for Cooperative Inference

Abstract We study the problem of cooperative inference where a group of agents interact over a network and seek to estimate a joint parameter that best explains a set of observations. Agents do not know the network topology or the observations of other agents. We explore a variational interpretation of the Bayesian posterior density, and its relation to the stochastic mirror descent algorithm, ...
